(Arabic: الحسين ابن علي ابن أبي طالب;
10 October 625 – 10 October 680)
(3 Sha’aban AH 4 (in the ancient (intercalated) Arabic calendar) – 10 Muharram AH 61)
(his name is also transliterated as Husayn ibn ‘Alī, Husain, Hussain and Hussein),
.
(“Al-Ḥusayn ibn Ali ibn Abi Talib” was a grandson of the Islamic Nabi (Arabic: نَـبِي, Prophet) Muhammad, and son of Ali ibn Abi Talib (the first Shia Imam and the fourth Rashid caliph of Sunni Islam), and Muhammad’s daughter, ‘Fatimah’)
.
(he is an important figure in Islam as he was a member of the Bayṫ (Arabic: بَـيـت, Household) of Muhammad, and Ahl al-Kisā’ (Arabic: أَهـل الـكِـسَـاء, People of the Cloak), as well as being the third ‘Shia Imam’)
(‘Husayn ibn Ali’ became the Imam of Shia after the death of his older brother, Hasan, in AD 670 (AH 50))
(his father’s supporters (Arabic: شِـيـعَـة عَـلِي, Shī‘aṫ ‘Alī) in ‘Kufah’ gave their allegiance to him)
(however, he told them he was still bound to the peace treaty between ‘Hasan’ and ‘Muawiyah I’ and they should wait until Muawiyah’s death)
(later, ‘Husain’ did not accept the request of ‘Muawiyah’ for the succession of his son, ‘Yazid I’, and considered this action a breach of the ‘Hasan–Muawiya treaty’)
(when ‘Muawiyah’ died in 680 AD, ‘Husayn’ refused to pledge allegiance to ‘Yazid’, who had just been appointed as Umayyad caliph by ‘Muawiyah’)
(he insisted on his legitimacy based on his own special position as a direct descendant of ‘Muhammad’ and his legitimate legatees)
(as a consequence, he left ‘Medina’, his home town, to take refuge in ‘Mecca’ in AH 60)
(there, the people of ‘Kufah’ sent letters to him, asking his help and pledging their allegiance to him)
(so he traveled towards ‘Kufah’, but, at a place near it known as ‘Karbala’, his caravan was intercepted by Yazid’s army)
(he was killed and beheaded in the ‘Battle of Karbala’ on 10 October 680 (10th of Muḥarram (Arabic: مُـحَـرَّم), 61 AH) by ‘Shimr Ibn Thil-Jawshan’, along with most of his family and companions, including Husayn’s six month old son, ‘Ali al-Asghar’, with the women and children taken as prisoners)
(anger at Husayn’s death was turned into a rallying cry that helped undermine the Umayyad caliphate’s legitimacy, and ultimately overthrow it by the ‘Abbasid Revolution’)
(‘Husayn’ is highly regarded by ‘Shi’ite Muslims’ for refusing to pledge allegiance to ‘Yazid’, the Umayyad caliph, because he considered the rule of the ‘Umayyads’ unjust)
(the annual memorial for him and his children, family and his companions is the first month in the Islamic calendar, that is ‘Muharram’, and the day he was martyred is the Ashura (tenth day of ‘Muharram’, a day of mourning for ‘Shi’i Muslims’))
.
(his action at ‘karbala’ fueled the later ‘shi’ite movements’)
